Said Gandolfini's wife in her tear-filled eulogy, "Jim, one of the things I loved the most was watching you be the father that you were to Michael and Lily. Thank you for the memories of the beautiful life we shared together. I love you Jim and I always will."

"James, my big teddy bear of a friend, I miss you now," Aston added in her equally emotional speech. "Thank you for being my friend. Thank you for allowing me to love you. Thank you for loving me. And thank you for loving all of us."

Chase chose to write his eulogy in letter-form, saying in part, "And that's why I think you were such a great actor, because of that boy inside. I think your talent is that you can take the immensity of humankind and the universe and shine it right back at us."
